Experience
I am a writer who is available to tutor writing, reading, phonics, literature, and English grammar and syntax. I can also help students with essays and study for tests such as the ISEE, ASPIRE, ACT, and SAT. My experience is with all ages of students. I have homeschool my children and family members' children from first through twelfth grades, and I have worked with children in a local non-profit youth orchestra. Through these experiences, I have worked with hundreds of students. I am a passionate and compassionate person who loves to teach others, keeping in mind that everyone learns differently. Because of that, I make sure that I tailor my teaching to the individual student instead of teaching as if there is a one-size-fits all approach. To keep my writing skills fresh, I participate in a local writing group. I am very interested in languages and have studied French, Russian, Old English, and Spanish at different times in my life. I also taught Latin in my home school. I constantly strive to educate myself, visiting historical sites while on vacation, reading, and even playing trivia games. My other hobbies include playing board and tabletop role playing games, knitting, sewing, and animals.
